slow xauth
2007-12-24 23:35:00
We currently have a boot server that assigns display numbers such as
"system:6.0" to each system that boots. Once the user telnets to another
system we set the display using xauth as follows:
DISPLAY=`/usr/bin/X11/xauth -i list | head -1 | cut -f1 -d" " `.0
which sets the DISPLAY to system:6.0.
The problem is that is takes between 15 and 40 seconds for xauth to read the
.Xauthority file and assign the display.
Does anyone know of a faster process?
